Greg Marshall  0:01  Alright, so we are we're on and one of the things I will talk about something I've noticed that, you know, I can't confirm because this isn't my, you know, area of expertise, this is more your area of expertise is it seems like so when I, when I run pay traffic, something similar to what I've had happen to me with email marketing, which is it seems like there's certain platforms that for whatever reason, the, I guess the partners, right, so you will say like Facebook, Instagram, or maybe Google ads or whatever pay traffic partner using, they don't seem to like or favor certain software's, right. So for example, I've used Shopify Click Funnels WordPress launch car, I mean, I've used I feel like I've used not all but a lot of right, Wix. And I can see there's a difference, there's a certain platform, okay, and I'm gonna say the name, I don't want to just completely shade anyone, it just seems like Facebook may not love this platform. So I love to hear your take on it. But yeah, click funnels, it seems like, for whatever reason, and myself included, actually have a Clickfunnels account. But it seems like for whatever reason, any client that's using Click Funnels doesn't get the same almost it's like the same offerings. But if they're on different platforms, it almost seems like they don't like Click Funnels or that they're Yeah, anti. I don't know, is Yeah. So is there any truth to that? And if so, why?
Blake Beus  1:36  Yeah, so, alright, so let me just first say, there's going to be a lot of speculation here, but I think it's relatively accurate speculation, or also wouldn't be making it. So this, this reminds me of, I like to think this like a bad neighbor. Right. Okay. So, you know, if you're, if you're in a neighborhood or whatever, and you have a home value, that's I don't know, $500,000. And you have someone move in next door, and they just trash their house in their yard and everything, your value of your house goes down. And it's very much the same out on the internet. Now, typically, I would see this and this is a known thing with the cheap, say WordPress web hosts. The shared hosting that it's like two or three bucks a month, you could get placed on a shared server with someone and if one of the websites on that server was breaking the rules or doing something bad or, or cheating Google and SEO or whatever, your site would be associated with that, and your search engine rankings would go down, we associate your guilty by association, right. And that's the biggest problem with say a shared host is is you you bump into that kind of stuff. The same thing with with platforms, right. So Shopify, they have their whole infrastructure built out and everything. Shopify has been around for a long time. They're a good player. They're the biggest e commerce platform out there, I believe, aren't they? I think so. I mean, other than like Amazon, and that doesn't count. But like for people that want to run shop, want to run ecommerce, so the biggest platform out there, and they've got things dialed in now, now click funnels comes in. It's run by a marketer. Yep. And marketers like to play kind of loose and fast. Yeah. And push push tournaments. It's very true. And they've built out an infrastructure that has been buggy in the past and had some other issues. But in my opinion, if you do a Google search right now for for Clickfunnels, versus whatever, Clickfunnels vs. Kajabi, whatever, you're going to have page after page after page of articles that are spammy, that are just trying to get people to click on a Click Funnels affiliate link and sign up with Clickfunnels. I didn't even know Yeah, everything. If you research Clickfunnels, you're going to see nothing but articles talking about the pros and cons and then ultimately, they're going to recommend Click Funnels.
